Lawmakers weigh a near vote on a seven point plan to set a pullout date from Indochina. The package would require U S forces to leave nine months after enactment if prisoners are released, with May 15 and Oct 15 1972 as possible final dates.

Nixon Promotes AMA Backed Health Plan At Congress
President Nixon urged the American Medical Association to back his health insurance proposal at the AMA convention in Atlantic City.

He claimed current programs would cost households 405 and 466 dollars annually under his plan, and 1271 dollars if nationalized insurance took hold.
